I love that. Perhaps its easier for me to say as I am not on any regular medication and never have been - apart from the contraceptive pill for years, before I knew any better. I also dont beat myself up about this. I think thats really important. I made the best choices I could at the time, with the information I had. Its very easy to judge others for their constant pill popping and choice to listen to their doctors and the medical world, but if you dont know, you dont know right? Everyone is just making the best decisions based on what they do know. I think empowerment comes from making informed choices and constantly asking more questions.
This journey for me has been a long time coming. I dont say all of this sitting on my high horse by any means. Just this morning I took two Naprogesic tablets for period pain. This is the only pharmaceutical that still makes an appearance in my life. I've always had crippling monthly pain with my period and occasionally it got so bad that I would faint and vomit. This put the scares up me so badly that now I dont let it get to any kind of bad pain, instead I choose to cut this off by taking 2 of these pills which completely nip it in the bud. It definitely doesnt sit well with me to be doing this, and the journey to resolve this has begun. Getting adjusted by my chiropractor, along with nutrition (the current journey) is where Im at with this. I did see a homepath some years ago which helped immensely, so I think this will be my next step on the journey. Anyway..... just telling you this to highlight that this is an area I want to resolve. Not quite sure where that all came from!!!!
Today I am in the office all day. I had my lemon in warm water this morning first thing, then made the green juices for me, Karl and Kat (our eldest daughter, who has decided to join us on this journey - AWESOME!). Then made up 3 juices of apple, carrot and beetroot and put them into big flasks for Kat and I to take during our day today.
Drank the juices this morning and then headed over to the mall at lunchtime for 'takeaways'. Made me giggle that takeaways today means visiting Boost Juice bar and getting their only green juiced veges available, so lunch today was a juice of 2 x green apples, spinach and celery.
Today just flowed so well. I am so in sync with my life at the moment and every work task Im doing is coming to me easily and things are just working. I know its from the choices I am making and the spiritual/emotional component being alot more balanced.
Hope you are all having an amazing day also.

Ah... period pain. I suffered really badly and the doctor told me the only cure was childbirth - he was right. But, the pill also made periods a breeze. Now that part of my life has left me and I'm on to the menopause stuff. All part of being a woman. I'm with you on the pills and am so pleased to be finally off all medication!!!
